The Moon Lyrics


I've.. been..
Traveling the land from gravel into sand.
Not knowing where I'm going never having any plans.
Anything I wanted had to grab it in advance
Abracadabra there's a rabbit in my hands cause,
Ive got the magic stick bust the baddest tricks
Fished for a whale brought a ship up out of it
Whats that I just saw? A platypus? Naw.
Maybe its a rat crawling flat on his paws
or a baby dragon just dragging his claws
It doesn't really matter
because its Saturday,
so look that-a-way
3 o'clock matinee,
lets collaborate
and Ill pay you back soon
with a crazy rap tune.

But for now I'm just gazing at the moon
Wander and ponder the pale blue yonder
To infinite and beyond the city
Beyond the city, we all want to see serenity
But some times you've gotta hop the fence to see.
That all sidewalks must end eventually.
I sit still at the bottom of the sea,
brainwaves chill i can see an anemone,
sentient entity
Let the spirit enter me
Patient, pervasive, how I was meant to be
A stone worn smooth by the swift currents of chaos
A place to lay a thick array of lush moss
I'm parlaying on my day off
floating way off on my thought balloons and snacking on macaroons
But for now I'm just gazing at the moon.

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Jape is the alter-ego of Redneck Manifesto member Richie Egan. Hailing from Crumlin in Dublin, Ireland, he purveys an electronica-heavy music tinged with 'stoner folk'. Jape's most renowned song 'Floating' has been covered by The Raconteurs and The Mighty Stef, to name a few. His debut album 'Cosmosphere' was released in 2003 (Volta Records), followed by 2004's 'The Monkeys In The Zoo Have More Fun Than Me' (Trust Me I'm A Thief). Having recently signed with V2 Records (9th May 2007), a third effort 'Ritual' came out on the 4th June 2008. The single 'Phil Lynott' was pushed forward as a possible Christmas number one in Ireland but barely dent the charts, despite being a huge live favourite. His debut at the SXSW festival in Texas (2007) added much hype and excitement to the future prospects of Jape's career. In December 2008 Jape wrote a song with David Kitt for a Christmas compilation called 'An Indiecater Christmas' which was put out by Indiecater Records. 'Ritual' recently won the 2008 Choice Music Award. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
